Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell Talk “Thunderbolt*”
Sebastian Stan and Wyatt Russell tell USA Today that it was like returning to the Marvel family with “Thunderbolts*.”
Bucky Burns’ life was not a barrel of laughter.
In a Marvel film from nearly 15 years, the character of Sebastian Stan took place via a squeeze. In World War II, Bucky transformed into a “dead” and the infamous winter soldier of the International Assassin, attempting to kill his best friend, causing the Avengers Civil War, and ceased to exist.
The new film, “Thunderbolts*” (theatre on May 2nd) shows a different side to Bucky. After he is brainwashed, he washes his mechanical arms next to a knife and fork. He has also seen messy sandwiches spilling on him.
“It’s fun and hilarious for me,” says Stan, an elder politician in the cinema universe at this point. “I finally managed to take advantage of what his sense of humor is. When we did ‘Captain America: Winter Soldier’, I would never have thought of it. ”
The latest Marvel Adventures shines a spotlight on Bucky and other support players for the Marvel Project. The foster parents of Russian assassin Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) and her raucous dad, the Red Guardian (David Harbor), and Black Widow are front and center. Also along the ride: John Walker (Wyatt Russell), the dishonorable former Captain America and the current US agent, and the Ghost (Hannah John Kamen) whose invisibility did a lot to her mind. Everything has done wrong, but you have to look at the darkness inside for redness.
“Thunderbolts*” states, “Themes that make you feel like an outsider who feels uncomfortable with your own skin. Isolated, depressed, embarrassing, those are not happy feelings.” The film is about “to peel off the layers above it and understand where you went to understand where you are heading.”
‘Thunderbolts*’ Story got a boost from ‘The Bear’, ‘Beef’ creator
The crude anti-hero works with former employer Valentina to trick them into killing each other. From the beginning, Eric Pearson’s original “Thunderbolts*” script was intended to turn the “Suicide Squad” type.
But the introduction to Bob (Lewis Pullman), an amnestic man who becomes a very powerful sentry, unleashes the emotional tale of director Jake Schreier. With the help of writers Joanna Karo (“Beef”) and Lee Sungjin (“Beef”), he tackles mental health angles as each character faces the past in the void, a surrealistic space of another world caused by Bob’s appearance.
Bob’s storyline was personal to Schreier. “I’ve tracked down my friends who have experienced a lot of things like this. These heights you can reach, and the hub arrogance that takes to get there, but that self-destructive depression and isolation need to learn to find balance and the middle ground (and).
Bob “is a very difficult character to wrap around his head,” adds Pullman. “The continuity and complexity of this guy, whether amazing or not, is sometimes very vague.”
“Thunderbolts*”: Marvel Cast Off Get Your Movie Adventures
Ace Assassin Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) teamed up with his father, Red Guardian (David Harbor), and other unlikely heroes from Marvel’s “Thunderbolts*.”
Wyatt Russell’s John Walker faces the “terrifying” shame of his father
The returning Marvel characters also have to take on a lot psychologically. Walker’s Rise and Fall is one of the main stories in the Disney+ series “Falcon and the Winter Soldiers,” and in “Thunderbolts*,” he desperately needs victory. His wife left him and took his young son with him.
Walker grows as a person during the film – he “can take tips now and understand a little more how to become part of the team,” says Russell. However, Walker is also faced with a blank “shameful room” that was originally written as an argument between Walker and his wife. Russell thought the child should be involved, so it turned into a scene where he ignored his child while reading a public about himself on his phone.
“It’s really sad to see your own child and your own experience, and your own lack of empathy through your own eyes. It’s a scary moment for him that he doesn’t want anyone to know,” Russell says. “As my own father, there is nothing more special than your child, and there is nothing more difficult than knowing that you are not the best father you can be.
‘Thunderbolts*’ Stars already works at ‘Avengers: Doomsday’
However, “Thunderbolts*” offers a goofy interaction between the heartwarming bonds that form between the protagonist and the team, along with the deep themes in play. This is great as most of the Thunderbolts will be back on Marvel’s “Avengers: Doomsday” (May 1, 2026). It began filming this week and revealed its cast via the director’s chair in the sky, which was live streamed in March.
“My brain just goes all the time. I hope the movie is good,” Russell says. “But you see your name on the back of that chair and you say, ‘This is so cool, what a crazy experience.'” Louis Dreyfus didn’t get the “end of the world” chair, but I’m ready.
Stan appeared in the last two “Avengers” films “Infinity War” and “Endgame,” and “It felt so much from this world in terms of achievement and the ability to bring together all people and everything,” the actor says. Stan looks forward to working with legacy “X-Men” actors such as Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart.
Russell sees Marvel’s universe as a big summer camp. He felt a bit awkward at first while doing a “Winter Soldier” TV show with Stan and Anthony Mackey. It was a pleasant feeling. ”
He smirked and joked with Stan: “And you’ve started summer camp.”
